Cook's Electronics had all sorts random toys and gadgets. They also had tv's, camcorders, and even a selection of DVD's and games. For Stryker right now, it was all about the phone section. Her old flip-phone had finally kicked the bucket after a less than graceful display in close-quarters combat training. More specifically, she'd missed a block and gotten kicked right in the pants pocket. Forgetting to remove the phone had resulted in a smashed bit of plastic, and a sprained ankle on the trainer. Embarrassment ensued. So now she was in Cook's, shopping for a new phone. And today, she was thinking of picking up a new smartphone so she could have a few more utilities at hand wherever she was. The new tPhone 4G looked interesting.
She toyed with the new technology, finding it already pre-loaded with a lot of silly little applications that were for amusement. But some of the inaccessible ones involved e-mail, internet access, and social networking links. The plans were a bit more expensive though. She had the pay rate to help that, but it was still a bit of a hard decision.

Envy waltzed into the place as if he owned it. He walked with the stride of an overconfident criminal, a man who thought he could do anything and get away with it. The walk of a man who had already done something illegal in the last five minutes and was overjoyed with not getting caught. Envy has money, not stolen, of course, a license and a small little grin. In truth Envy just wanted to piss off a few people, or a cop, with his walk and see what happened. Maybe someone would notice him and notify the cops. Then he'd get arrested for nothing at all, or better, he'd get in a fight with a cop.
Envy walked past the phones on the way to the CDs, eying a cute girl look at an iPhone. He moved on, dismissing her for the moment so he could find some of his rap tunes. He passed up "Rebirth by Lil Wayne", having already purchased the CD. He grabbed the new Eminem CD "Recovery", examining the CD's contents for a moment.

There were few times that Strkyer was thought of as cute in any circumstance. She looked like a boy 90% of the time. Yes, there was the effeminate face, and the lack of adam's apple, but she could pull off he as easily as it was to erase the "s" on her pronouns. She dressed and had the pose of a boy, and the not so cute demeanor helped that too. That made it hard to get help at times. Since the guy in charge of the phone section had been rather attentive to another girl's needs. Or attentive to her chest. That suited her just fine. No annoying sales pitches.
But deciding to give the man a few minutes to stop being an idiot, she walked to the CD section. Her eye caught sight of a familiar facial feature, what was most easily described as a red five on a boy's cheek. Such a distinguishing mark. At the moment though, she had no idea what it was signifying, or if it was just an odd tattoo. Only recently becoming part of the force made it hard for her to remember all the information tossed her way. Especially in occult crimes. The littlest line could mean the difference between popcorn and brimstone.
Quickly committing the mark to memory, she started to look in the pop section, cruising through titles with little heed as to what they were. The Japanese selection was limited. But she was really looking for the techno artists that got lumped in the section. As observant as she was, it was hard to get past the fact that the whole section was invariably filled with "flavor of the week" teen heartthrob crap.

Baki ran into the store with super human speed and slammed his fists on the clerk's desk as he ran in and panted for breathe. Today eh had enough money to buy the new Eminem Recovery CD and breathing heavily he held up his fistful of cash and panted. "Ran...from...Titan...Tower... Where is" He coughed and took a deep breath. "The new eminem CD."
The clerk answered with a finger pointing at a desk full of Cd's and Baki ran to the table going through the CD's. not nitcing he was next to two super powered power houses nearby.
